Officials at a Colorado wildlife refuge are cautiously moving forward with a plan to reopen parts of their facility this week in the wake of a plague outbreak amongst prairie dogs in the area. The Rocky Mountain Arsenal National Wildlife Refuge was shut down after plague-infected prairie dogs were found weeks ago, and parts of the refuge will remain closed to visitors even as the location reopens its doors to the public.

The refuge, which spans nearly 16,000 acres, is typically open for tourists to come and enjoy the natural splendor, but that changed in late July when park officials decided to lock the doors as they dealt with the plague-ridden animals.

Soon after the dust settled from Comic-Con 2019, it became clear that the fourth phase of the Marvel Cinematic Universe would have no Avengers, Guardians or Spider-Man sequels. Instead, we’re getting the first Disney+ TV shows that will be integrated into the MCU, a few new heroes, and sequel movies for other franchises. I told you not too long ago that Marvel will definitely make more Avengers movies, but that it first needs some time to allow the new heroes to develop some more. After all, Iron Man, Captain America, and Black Widow were all retired after Endgame.

This brings us to the latest Avengers rumor that tells us Marvel is cooking up what could be a massive Avengers 5 movie. However, we’ll need to wait until Phase 6 or even later to see it. And no, this isn’t the mysterious “big” Disney+ MCU show that Marvel is supposed to announce soon.

Let me make clear, right off the bat, that I intend to sign up for Apple’s new premium TV offering on day one and will give more than one of its shows a try as the company makes its first attempt at grabbing a piece of the streaming TV pie. Unfortunately, the trailer Apple released Monday morning for The Morning Show, one of the presumably strongest titles in its slate of programming based on the strength of the cast alone, doesn’t necessarily have me excited at the prospect of doing so.

Which is not to say I’m turned off, either, at this first footage released from the series that goes behind the scenes at a fictional morning show and stars Jennifer Aniston, Steve Carell, and Reese Witherspoon. Watch the trailer above and see what you think — I’m neither hot nor cold about it, I guess is what I’m saying, partly because the trailer seems to be not sure what kind of show it’s teasing.

August 19th marks the end of the temporary reprieve the US government gave Huawei after banning its access to American products, including hardware components as well as software licenses it needs to manufacture and sell all sorts of devices. But that doesn’t mean Huawei will no longer be able to conduct business with US-based partners, as the Commerce Department was expected on Monday to extend the reprieve by several months. The extension was just announced, which means Huawei has ample time to launch two of its most important products of the year, including the Mate 30 Pro and Mate X foldable.

As is typically the case, Apple’s new trio of iPhone models will likely garner the lion’s share of attention at the company’s upcoming fall media event. That said, it’s not as if Apple’s fall event — which will likely take place on Tuesday, September 10 — will be strictly an iPhone-only affair. If history is any indication, Apple this year will also roll out a completely new iteration of its increasingly popular Apple Watch.

Though iPhone releases over the past few years have been somewhat incremental with respect to new features, Apple has really done a tremendous job of adding compelling and exciting new features to the Apple Watch with each new release. From the introduction of cellular connectivity on the Apple Watch Series 3 to the rollout of enhanced new health and fitness tracking features on the Apple Watch Series 4, the rumored Apple Watch Series 5 will presumably offer up a slew of intriguing new features as well.

When it comes to connected radar detectors with smart features like crowd-sourced alerts, GPS false alarm memory and a global data base, the Escort MAX360 is the model that comes to most people’s minds. Well, guess what: there’s a new option in town and it does everything the MAX360 can do and more… plus it has a built-in 1080p dash camera… plus it’s $100 cheaper!

We’ve spent the past week testing the Cobra Road Scout Dash Cam and Radar Detector in place of the Escort model we normally use, and we are thoroughly impressed. The range is easily just as good as the MAX360, the features and app control are terrific, and having a built-in dash cam that records in Full HD is brilliant. The dash cam add-on for the MAX360 is another $200 on top of the $550 you already spent on the radar detector itself. Meanwhile, the Cobra Road Scout is only $449.95 on Amazon — that’s $300 less than the combo from Escort!

Of note, if you don’t need a radar detector and you just want a high-quality dash camera, the Cobra Drive Dash Cam Dash2208 and the Cobra Drive HD Dash Cam DASH2216D are both terrific options.

Cobra Road Scout Dash Cam and Radar Detector, WiFi, Bluetooth, iRadar Compatible, HD 1080P Dash…: $449.95

Here’s some additional info from the product page:

• 2-IN-1 RADAR DETECTOR & DASH CAM – Long range cobra radar detector combined with a high definition dash cam to capture and share unexpected moments. Built in Bluetooth provides community alerts from the Cobra iRadar app.
• HIGH RESOLUTION DASH CAMERA FOR CARS – In-car video management on smartphone through direct Wifi connectivity to view, share, and edit videos. Full HD 1080p, enhanced night vision, and continuous loop recording provide for high quality video capabilities.
• UNMISTAKEABLE DETECTION RANGE & ACCURACY – The best of police radar detector technology and radar detectors for cars, with Digital Signal processing detects real-time radar, laser, live patrol, and speed traps.
• FAST, PRECISE, & RELIABLE ALERTS – Compatible with iRadar app for real-time crowd sourced speed trap notifications, preloaded with red light and speed camera location which trigger GPS-based laser-precise alerts.
